u can go traditional u know, cheap and works

DUMCHRIS:
I use hearing aida also. But about those sophisticated ones hmmm the problem is that if they spoil where will u repair it.I will advise u go to Ibadan its cheaper there that's where I got mine. Abuja is expensive. All those one of 15 k may not be good for profound hearing loss due to amplitude and clarity of sound

My 2 year old son has an hearing problem too, so we started out to alot of test and false results. But I was finally told to visit the Nigerian army audiology centre Yaba. It's just the next building after military hospital. We finally got the hearing aids (semiens) for around 550k.
He has been wearing it since November 2016. There has been improvements.

Arijude:
it's only God that can heal you my brother. Seek the face of God first and you shall need no man made implement for hearing. Ear problem is very terrible, I say this because I suffered it before.
I felt unbalanced because there were no equal pressure in both ears. I was embarrassed . I was depressed. But, when I turned to God and asked him for forgiveness of sins and divine healing, I got healed. I pray that you regain your hearing just as me in Jesus name, amen!

DjAndroid:
MTN Foundation distributes hearing aids free of charge to Nigerians. make enquiries.

I thought I was the only one who could do that dimming ish but mine I can dim my right eye to boost the left one I suffered from quint eyes "half past 4 eyes "after my surgery to correct it i developed that diming ability...

Chiebunigom:

Thanks for this! One of my sons has quint eyes and someone has been pushing my husband to correct them through surgery. He is just six years old. As for me, I have no qualms with his eyes like that so far its not stopping him from seeing clearly, besides he's a smart and cute boy. Would really show him your post.
I'm sorry about your hearing loss, may the Mighty hand of Jesus restore your hearing, amen!

Ginaz:
The Lord is your strength. It's not easy suffering from something like that, I tell you. The embarrassment and shame of not hearing what others are saying can bring profound sadness.

i'm sorry to hear about your ear Mr. op.
hearing aids are bulshit! so long it SHNL there is no certainty wether a hearing aid will work. that is because hearing aid works as sound amplifier; it's just like increasing the volume of your radio. that doctor maybe giving you a false hope.
and if you buy the hearing aid and they don't work, return would not be accepted.

your ultimate solution is colchear implant. but it's very expensive. upto 5million naira

I've SHNL too. i've been there, right now i've two hearing aid in my drawer. each for about 200k.

I don't want you to waste your money but, most importantly, i don't want you to feel sad over your hearing loss.

I have Siemens BTE hearing device in my drawer too. Hehehe didn't work much. Even after spending whopping 250k.

But what about invisible hearing aids(ITC)? How effective?

remainhidden:

to be honest I don't like wearing those hearing aids..
it look kinda embarrassing wearing it all the time..
I requested for the invisible hearing aid that you can hardly see..
but doctor said it not all that can wear it
depending on the situation and level of your hearing..
The doctor took my test result to puretone and got the hearing aid after one month for 120k

Codyt:

Bro see ehn I can relate very well. When you are seen wearing things like this, when people want to talk to you they'll over do it so annoyingly

Its true not everyone can wear the invisible aid.

I've used this particular type. But it's not strong enough.
How do we get our convo from here?

remainhidden:

ItsQuinn:

quint Eyes is not owk I will advise you for his sake not yours to go for the surgery early I did mine when I was 15 years old the doctors said I should have done it ealier ..the problem with quint eyes is that one of the eyes muscles will be pulling the other one and it will weaken his eye sight very soon he might not be seeing clearly and also it was kinda traumatic for me back den kids used to make fun of me which affected my self esteem ...i did my surgery @kano eye hospital they have brilliant surgeons there its more like plastic surgery roughly 4hrs and cost abt 60- 80k then 10years back sha don't please just try and do it my elder sister also had hers there too ...

I would suggest you start learning sign language as a substitute, hearing aids only amplifies sound and doesn't necessarily give a reasonable sound.. besides the itching that comes with it..... I'm a sign language interpreter and I have friends who lost their hearing at their 20's and more, but today they have accepted their condition and took up sign language as alternative language though they converse very well like everyone just that they can't hear.. cochlear implants is also a no no... because you are neither deaf nor hearing.....

thecommunist:
learning lip reading is a better option.

So, we r many that have Tinnitus. Mine was as a result of auto accident where I sustain neck/head injuries. Though my case is mild to moderate, I wish I can hear well. I hope to have a foundation that cater for hearing loss patients. I will create a WhatsApp group where we can all share information, this will help us to coping with it. I will share d link here for people to join. As for d MTN Foundation, it's a scam..
